To fit nylon line only:
• Remember ! Your Flymo Trimmer is designed to
use only nylon line with a maximum diameter of
2mm. Use only genuine Flymo nylon line.
1. Take approximately 7 metres of line. Place the centre
of the line into the slot in the middle of the spool (T1)
enabling 3.5 metres of line to be wound on either side
of the centre section of the spool. Always wind line in
the direction of the arrows on the top of the spool.
Leave approximately 100mm of line unwound and
place into cleat as illustrated in figure V.
2. Care should be taken to ensure that the line is
neatly coiled on the spool. Failure to do so will
impair the efficiency of the automatic line feed.
3. Then fit spool as described in ‘To fit spool and line
complete’, section above.
Always return the product to its normal operating
position before switching on.
